And what does the future hold for Lilley's singing career? Well...check out what she has to say about that and more...

Soapdom: How did this idea come about?

Jen Lilley: I've always dreamed of having a Christmas album, so one of my goals for 2014 was to record a Christmas single. I've now recorded three songs this year! (Two of them are Christmas tunes. The other Christmas tune is called "We're All Waitin' on You" and I will perform that live in Peekskill NY on Dec. 5 to raise money for wounded veterans at the Westchester All Stars Christmas concert.
